Women’s History

The 19th Amendment to the Constitution of the United States proclaims that

“The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex. The Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation”

-- Adopted in 1920.

“Women's history isn't meant to rewrite history. The objective is to promote scholarship and expand our knowledge of American history.” –National Women’s History Museum

Ones' Self I Sing
By Walt Whitman

One's self I sing, a simple separate person, yet utter the word democratic, the word En-Masse.

Of Physiology from top to toe I sing, 
Not physiognomy alone nor brain alone is worthy for the Muse, I say the Form complete is worthier far,
The Female equally with the Male I sing.

Of Life immense in passion, pulse, and power, 
Cheerful, for freest action form'd under the laws divine, 
The Modern Man I sing.
